    Bumble Prime and His Awesome Friends!

    The gang's all here! Your Tireless Mechanical Mikes are back in the saddle again, this time joined by a full posse of Transformers Animated alum. Prolific writer and story editor of Transformers Animated Marty Isenberg returns...with friends! Please welcome to the show Allspark Almanac co-writer Jim Sorenson (AKA Archivist Magnus) , lead toy designer of the original TFA toys Eric Siebenaler, and the true torch-bearer of Transformers Animated, Keyan Carlile. What do they all have in common? They've all contributed to the hottest new comic on the block: Bumble Prime! That's right, the legendary unproduced Transformers Animated episode has been given new life in the form of an unofficial comic, written by Keyan in collaboration with a host of talented creators and artists. We break down this tragic tale of a Cybertron that never was, inspired by Derrick J. Wyatt's original sketches and ideas, before turning it over to YOU, the listeners, for some of your most burning questions about TFA. Who's the most dangerous human villain? What's the secret to designing Animated characters? Who's the best Transformers husband??? All this and more from a whole new batch of Mikes!

    The Society of Substitute Autobots: So Many Mike!

    Just One More Thing! Call us Columbo, but it didn't seem fair that after nearly 3 years of pondering plot points out loud, we didn't give some of our repeat mailbag offenders a chance to chime in...especially now that Mike Seibert has graduated from First-Time Viewer to Serial Rewatcher. With the spoiler embargo lifted, we welcome to the show Ed, Blake, Stuart, Irish Mike and returning 2M2F superfan, Matthew "Matty B" "The Barberino" Barberio to discuss Transformers Animated as a whole--with little to no regard for Seibert's precious ears! We'll cover some of the hottest takes this side of New Detroit, crush a few Burger Bots, and learn that real treasure was the Mikes we met along the way. So what are you waiting for, Cogs?

    The End of the End: The Final Mike Drop [TFA S03:E13]

    We came, we saw, we achieved something! Your Tireless Mechanical Mikes--the Spark Soul Brothers themselves--return for one last episode review proper, discussing the final episode of Transformers Animated ever, "Endgame, Part II." No more flashbacks, folks! In fact, we're flashing forward to the execution of Megatron's big plan--or is it Starscream's? It's the final battle for New Detroit, the Earth, and Cybertron all in one--and you've got box seats in Sumdac Tower! Listen in as Mikel Andrews masters Processor Over Matter to pluck the last shard of wireless fidelity from his internet provider and Mike Seibert begins his optics quest as a Cyber Serial Rewatcher.  And fear not! We have a few surprises left, and you surely haven't heard the last of the titular Mikes. However, these 2 mouthy Cogs would just like to say thank you for listening these last 3 seasons. You have been...and always shall be...Mike.  Registration for CybFest NW 2025 is now LIVE for attendees, dealers, and sponsors!

    The Beginning of the End: Mike Over Matter [TFA S03:E12]

    It's a bittersweet symphony as the Mikes arrive at the first half of the Transformers Animated series finale, "Endgame, Part I." A flashback-heavy tale unfolds, setting up the origins of the Autobot team we know and love--the trial of Optimus Prime, the final commission of Ratchet, the friendship of Bee and Bulk, and the fate of Prowl. In the present, Optimus earns his wings (and maybe hammer) while Megatron reveals his big plan (no, bigger) from the darkest reaches of the moon. But don't worry, we're putting some serious mileage between us and the end of the road. You want tangents? You got it. Unimaginably deep insights? We're practically fracking here. Break down the Fast and Furious film titles? Don't tempt us with a good time! It's a mega double-wide director's cut episode perfect for your long commutes or summer road trips. You're welcome! All your favorite bits take center stage as we tap dance ever closer to the end of Transformers Animated...and 2M2F itself. Buckle up. TO BE CONCLUDED! 2 BEE CONCLUDED! TUBI CONCLUDED?

    Fanzone Noir: The Machine Who Hated Me [TFA S03:E11]

    The Mikes have been chewed up and spit out by these mean streets, so they're jumping into the Space Bridge Nexus, along with the enigmatic nicknameless Abbey, to unwrap the hardest-boiled episode of Transformers Animated yet: Season 3's "This Is Why I Hate Machines." Of all the Space Bridges mounted on top of inventor's towers in New Detroit, why did Fanzone have to walk into his? Ratchet and the Motor City's toughest cop (maybe fugitive) leap across the galaxy to find a cold new era for Cybertron: the interim rule of acting Magnus, Sentinel Prime! Under the shadowy trench coat of crooked curfews and long loogies, this craven new world is one of seedy deals and back-alley snitches--and Fanzone feels right at home! As he and Ratchet literally go underground on Cybertron, the two sleuths uncover the truth about Ratchet's past, Shockwave's true colors, and the High Council's darkest secrets. Listen in as Abbey's thoughtful insights peel back the layers of this shiny apple, exposing its rotten core. She'd never done a crazy thing til this podcast, see? Now she's on the take! Or something. Anyway, more mailbag and fluid legislation make this episode one for the record books! Let's do the TransWarp againnnnn!
